Sunny days, chasin the clouds away.

Sunshine is good for the soul! Today was such a beautiful day! I got a lot of yard work done and finally hosed off the globs of mud stuck to our clothes from our adventures this past weekend. The kids and I enjoyed some bubbles, sidewalk chalk, swinging, and a good game of "momma chase me while I laugh hysterically." 

Today is also my middle nephew Elijah's, birthday! He's such an awesome kid! I cannot believe it has been 9 whole years since he was born. He's my kind of guy. He likes very few people, and comes off a little bit hateful. Just how I like people. haha. Luckily, he loves his aunt Courtney. We have always had a pretty close bond.  And he really really loves his uncle Evan. They are always wrestling and being ninjas and marines together! I dare say uncle Evan is one of his favorite people. He's a little soccer star, and I cannot wait to see what he does with his life in the coming years. So happy birthday Elijah David. We love you!
